I have a buddy over who wants to put OpenBSD 3.8 on his macppc G3
powerbook (bronze keyboard) we burn tested the boot cd on a G4 Powerbook

by the cd and boot into the mac os. Any ideas what we might be doing wrong?
How should the hardware know that it should boot from CD? Press 'C' or
switch-appel-o-f to get into OF and boot from there as described in the docs.
Thanks we have tried all the examples in the docs. We get to the
ofw prompt and have tried
boot cd:,ofwboot /3.8/macppc/bsd.rd
and putting the two files on the hard drive and booting
using
boot hd:,ofwboot bsd.rd
no go on any of them.
